Sex and drugs and orienteering

I’m down to organise the club’s evening event at Sandwell Valley country park on August 28th. I haven’t been down there to reconnoitre yet, but I had in mind to use the Swan Pool carpark as a base. I know it isn’t the most salubrious of O venues (though possibly higher up the food chain than Woodgate Valley or Saltwells) but I thought it wouldn’t be too bad at 7 o’clock on a summer Thursday evening. Having read the series of pieces in the local paper, I think I might move the event base to the farm carpark!
